In the strongest showing since July 2016, the unemployment rate in the United States remained low in February as USA employers added 313,000 jobs to the economy.

Job creation in the USA economy surged last month, but the annual rate of wage growth slowed.

Average hourly earnings for all employees on private payrolls rose by 4 cents to $26.75 in February, following an 7-cent gain in January.

Over the past year, the total number of nonfarm jobs in Pennsylvania increased 1.1 percent. "On balance, developments since December generally reinforce my view of the need for somewhat more removal of accommodation", he said.
